ClearTone / Microsoft Teams Noise Cancelling
ClearTone removes background noise from your microphone and from everyone else in your Microsoft Teams meetings and Teams Phone calls. It writes your notes without a bot joining and keeps everything on your own computer.
From £11.49 a month after a 3-day free trial. Windows, Mac and Linux. Works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and any dialler or softphone.
Pick a noise and switch ClearTone on and off. This is what the people on your calls stop hearing.
ClearTone is on. The keyboard behind you is gone, and only your voice goes down the line.
Teams picks up ClearTone automatically when it uses the computer's default devices. Otherwise choose ClearTone once in Teams' device settings.
Keyboards, fans, traffic, children, pets and nearby conversations are removed before Microsoft Teams hears them.
The noise behind everyone else on the call is removed from what you hear, and quiet voices are lifted.
A live transcript with exact You and Them labels, then highlights, action items and a follow-up email, with no bot joining.
Talk ratio, long monologues and dead air on your screen during the call. Only you can see it.
ClearTone warns you when your microphone is muted or flat before you talk to silence.
Noise removal, transcription and summaries all run on your own computer.
Download ClearTone for Windows or Mac and do the one-minute mic check. It becomes your computer's microphone and speaker while it runs.
In Teams, open Settings, then Devices (or Audio settings in the new Teams). If a particular headset is chosen for Microphone or Speaker, pick ClearTone instead, once.
Set Teams' noise suppression to Low or Auto and switch off voice isolation, so Teams and ClearTone don't both process the same sound.
Customers and colleagues judge a call by how it sounds. ClearTone keeps the office, the home and the street out of your Teams meetings and Teams Phone calls, and evens out everyone else's volume for you.
Microsoft Teams has its own noise suppression for your microphone, and on some licences a voice isolation feature. They work inside Teams and help in a quiet home office.
ClearTone also cleans the audio coming in from everyone else, so a colleague on a noisy train or a customer in a shop sounds clear to you, with auto volume for quiet and loud speakers. Only My Voice turns down people talking near you on a busy floor. And the same clean sound follows you into Zoom, Google Meet, your softphone and your dialler, so you don't depend on each app's settings.
ClearTone writes a live transcript with exact You and Them labels and turns each call into highlights, needs, objections, action items and a follow-up email, on your own computer. It works with any Teams licence and with external meetings where you can't record, because nothing joins the meeting and nothing is uploaded. You remain responsible for telling people when you transcribe.
ClearTone works with Teams Phone calls, call queues and auto attendants exactly as with meetings, which makes it a good fit for support teams that answer customers in Teams.
Try It: ClearTone Camera
Pick a background, then switch between meeting apps. The background stays exactly the same, because ClearTone Camera puts it there before any app sees your picture.
Executive OfficeYou
Same background in Zoom. Nothing to set up inside the app.
Your own picture stays in your browser and is never uploaded. ClearTone Camera runs on Windows 10 and 11.
ClearTone sits between your headset and the computer, so it works with any calling app on Windows or Mac, and in Chrome with ClearTone for Chrome. There is nothing to install inside your dialler and no integration to wait for.

Apps set to the computer's default microphone and speaker (the usual setting) use ClearTone automatically. If an app has a particular headset chosen, pick ClearTone in its audio settings once. Product names are trademarks of their owners and are listed to show compatibility.
